It has been a chilly day, and the air has smelt like autumn.
The seasons are definitely changing. I love autumn, I think it must be my
favourite season. I know summer is hot, but when you live in the UK the heat is
a hit and miss thing anyway. But autumn is lovely! The rich colours, the
crunchy leaves under your feet and the crisp morning air. Not to mention the
clothes you get to wear! I’m a huge sucker for the scarf and hat look. When you
can get all togged up, put on your gloves and coat, drink hot soup and feel
looked after. It definitely is a cosy season.
So with it being on the tail end of summer my family and I decided
to make the most of the sun and head over to Hoghton Tower. We didn’t know it
existed until we saw it the other day on a television program and what a little
gem it is! With it only being around half an hour away from where we live it
was the perfect day trip out.
We managed to catch the first guided tour and they took us
all around the house, even showing us the underground passageways. It was
really interesting. There were rooms where The Duke of Cambridge had stayed,
places where Last Tango in Halifax was filmed and the bed that David Tennant used
in the recent film Casanova. King James I had even visited. The walled gardens of
the house were beautiful and with it
being the third most haunted house in Britain it was really up my street (because
of my recent obsession with the American series Ghost Adventures, but that’s
another story!).
Here are a few photos
of the day, don’t mind my outfit! It was jumper, coat and turtle-neck weather (definitely
the change of seasons).
